At the moment DANCHIP has 3 PECVDs that can deposite silicon nitride and silicon oxynitride. PECVD1 and PECVD3 are for silicon based processing. PECVD2 is for III-V processing and will be describes under III-V processing. Look at the PECVD page to learn more about the PECVDs at DANCHIP. All though PECVD1 and PECVD3 are very much alike you cannot count on the a recipe on one system will give exactly the same results on the other system.

Recipes on PECVD1 for deposition of silicon nitride and silicon oxynitride

Recipes

Recipe name SiH4 flow [sccm] NH3 flow [sccm] N2 flow [sccm] Pressure [mTorr] Power [W] Description
1nitride 30 20 1000 500 80
1nit_std 40 20 1960 550 60 Process control recipe

Expected results

Recipe name Deposition rate [nm/min] RI Uniformity [%] Stress [MPa] Comments
1nitride
1nit_std ~32 1.89 ~1 The latest measured values can be seen in the process control sheet in LabManager

Recipes on PECVD3 for deposition of silicon nitride and silicon oxynitride
